Hiya
We're doing a recording for the radio tonite at Kings cross and im looking for a nice quitish place for a small discussion afterwards.

I've got a few ideas, and was planning on spending the afternoon walking around checking levels.

But then i thought. "why not ask" so does anyone know anywhere near kings croos station where you can sit and chat with say 4 people. Without background noise that becomes intrusive?

good plan
the british library.
they have a nice courtyard area, Its quite a nice place to sit.

I usually go there when i am waiting for someone to come in from Euston of KX.

Though the pub is always very tempting...

Smithy's wine bar is good, it's often quiet unless there's a function on.

Calthorpe arms is about 10 mins down Grays Inn Road on the left & tends to be very quiet & relaxed . . .

There is a newish hotel bar a little up york way (The Waiting Room) it has always been totally quiet (well dead) anytime I've passed or been in there so should suit your purpose.
